Geranda:

• leaves straight, medium;
• root cone;
• carrot has a grated wide core;
• has early varieties (Alenka and Carotel);
• it is characterized by the duration of storage and an increased content of carotene, useful for sight.

Flycke:

• the moor of weight is equal to the fetus;
• root root, has a rounded form;
• carrot rod wide in diameter;
• it has late satisfied grade (queen of autumn, Helsmaster).

Paris Carotel:

• has early varieties;
• roundplood rounded, small in diameter;
• differs good yield, even in the most difficult conditions.

Amsterdam:

• has early varieties;
• roots in the form of a long narrow cylinder;
• differs to fragility and absolute unsuitability for long-term storage.

Emperor:

• it has medium and lateral varieties (Russian size, mo, sugar farm);
• root cornestode, in the form of a pointed cone;
• fragile zortotype - can break through negligence;
• such carrots can be discharge.

Early carrots are desirable to eat in summer, or apply in conservation (in salads, marinades, etc.). It is not able to be stored for a long time. It is best for wintering in the cellar approached varieties, the cleaning of which falls on autumn, and the dates of ripening range from 3 to 4.5 months.

• Spring landing of early carrots in open ground should begin with a steady temperature +8. This is necessary in order for abundant moisture to evaporate from the ground to sufficiently. Late-weighted storage varieties should be sown in April-May when the street will be warm.
• Seed germination temperature is about +5 ºC. This means that the sowing work is best to start after a complete warming of the Earth - on the last week of April - early May. You need to have time to sink carrots before the start of the rainy season - moisture and heat contribute to the active growth of the root.

• Contrast water procedures. Seeds initially tie into a fabric bag. 2 tanks are prepared: with hot water (about 50 ºC) and cold. In the hot, they hold a cotton with seeds for 20 minutes, after - dip in cold water for 3 minutes.
• Addictive to earth. The seeds tied in tissue are buried into the ground on the shone shovel. This makes it possible to adapt to the conditions of unpredictable nature.
• Oxygen enrichment. If you have a special bubbling apparatus, follow the procedure for seeds in a sink solution or epine during the light time of the day. This method of processing helps speed up germs.
• Accelerate the harvest and prevent the development of sores will help the bath with hydrogen peroxide: on 200 ml of water - 1 tsp. Pharmacy. Seeds in a tissue bag dip in the solution and withstand 24 hours.
